Catupult Challenge

Whetu Catapult Challenge

The things that I used to make my catapult were: 3 rubber bands, 8 small iceblock sticks, 2 big iceblock sticks, and a spoon.

To make my catapult I worked with Jolie.

The most challenging part was making our catapult go far and not to break anything when I was slingshotting it.

Our best results were our catapult went 22 meters and we got into the semi-finals.

Overall I think that our one went pretty good and we tried our best.

Emoji Creation

This week I made some emojis. It was a bit hard but I got there in the end. This here is my laughing emoji. I tried to make a mouth but It doesn't, really look like one. I made a sunglasses emoji it was quite hard because it took a long time to make them because I had to get a lot of shapes to fill them in. I made a winking tung emoji I tried to make a tung but I think t looks ok. I made a Whetu emoji. I tried to make some stars since our theme is stars. I made the original Smiling emoji. I used a moon shape to make them smile. I made I winking love heart emoji. I thought this one would be cool for Valentine

day or something I tried to draw lips but they are a bit messy but oh well.

Virtual tours.

This week I have been learning about virtual tours. Since we all have to self isolate we can't go on holidays so there is an app called virtual tours. with virtual tours, you can go to all the places you want to go but from your home. Here is a slide I did about virtual tours.

Week 1 Reflection

What has been my highlight this week is seeing the dolphins in the Piako and seeing all of my friends

What was I nervous about this week. Coming back to school, forgetting something

For dress-up day I dressed up as a tiger and A funky person.

The funniest thing has happened this week is all the teachers dressing up.

I think the best-dressed person was Taylor because she dressed up and a motorbike person and not many people knew it was her.

Milk bottle creation.

On Wednesday the 20th of May it was an offline day at school. I made a boat out of a milk bottle. At first, I painted my milk bottle yellow and blue because I thought it could give the boat a little bit of a pop.  Once it was dry I poked a hole in the bottle with a skewer to make a sale hold but then I thought why don,t I add some detail I made a steering wheel, a person to drive the boat and some windows. The hardest part was picking the skewer into my bottle. I enjoyed everything because it was all so much fun.

Fabulous Finish Character model

This week I did a character model of Dribble the turtle. I tried my best to draw a turtle and then I colored it in, I was,nt so sure if a  turtle shell was green or brown because there Are differences between turtles because there are normal turtles and sea turtles. I made a flap that has all the things about dribble. I put some leaves and lettuce around dribble because I know that turtles like eating lettuce and leaves.

Chapter Challenge Commercial

This week I did a commercial for toddler bikes. I planed my scene and scripts and I practiced them before I  filmed it. I drew a toddler bike but then I thought even though it is made out of paper I stuck It onto my wheelie chair so I could pretend that I was biking.
